** Another Winter Wonderland Garden Birdwatch. **

Another day garden birding, and hopefully some new birds, well that is what I was hoping for, and I wasn't disappointed. The day started off as usual with all the regular visitors on a feeding frenzy to get some food into their bellies to help them through the day, and then again late afternoon to help them survive the night, which alas many do not is they cannot get enough food. As the morning went by some of the not so common birds which also feed daily started to arrive, those being 2 male BLACKCAP, a REED BUNTING, and a PIED WAGTAIL. A JAY turned up a couple of times, filling up on peanuts, and then the more unusual birds started arriving throughout the day, those being 2 SONG THRUSH, 1 MISTLE THRUSH, and finally just after lunch a REDWING made several appearances, and finally just when I was about to call it a day a FIELDFARE flew in.

Hi Ken, All I get in my garden is a couple of blackbirds and a robin. Been trying for months to find out where the birds have gone. The food in the feeders goes rotten, mind you the foxes and hedgehogs call every night so its not so bad. Take care, Mike.
